PHP is an open-source, cross-platform, easy-to-learn, and extendable programming language that allows web developers to create dynamic content that interacts with databases. In recent years, PHP has edged out Microsoft's proprietary ASP as a popular server-scripting technology. Homepages, database front-ends on the web, command line shell scripts where you want extra functionality, and even basic GUI development can all be implemented with PHP.
Come join the Canada West Coast Chapter of the Society for Technical Communication and learn about the important role PHP plays in web technology and how technical communicators can benefit from learning this language.
